Any ideas?
I try to plan my meals ahead of time, but sometimes it doesn't always work out. I find that every now and then, I need a good protein snack that is low in fat that doesn't require a lot of prep time.
What I don't want: shakes or protein bars. I use those already and I really need to find something different.

Low fat string cheese and greek yogurt come to my mind. Also sliced ham or turkey if you don't mind the sodium.0

didn't think about string cheese... that could work! I'm pretty strict about sodium, but that doesn't mean I can't have ham or turkey at all, that's also a good idea! The yogurt just has so much sugar... I tend to stay away.
Thank you! I'm texting my husband now, as he's at the store. :flowerforyou:0 -

Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, baked tofu.
Yogurt isn't high in sugar at all though! Just don't buy the kind with "fruit on the bottom" or lots of sweetener in it. Get the plain variety.0 -
1/2 or 1 cup of low-fat cottage cheese (~14g and ~28g of Protein)0

Chicken boobs! Or tenders. I like cold chicken, so if you marinate, bake, then chill, you can get quick protein from the fridge!0

You could try making a protein brownie with your protein powder.

Definitely peanut butter or nuts.
nuts are an ok source of fat, protein...not so much.,0 -
A chicken breast. On the go? Put it in a zip lock and stick it in your pocket. When time to eat, you can hold it just like a candy bar.0

A handful of nuts or cottage cheese.0
